@Jadeypie it definitely looks a bit stronger than yesterday, was it fmu or smu? Strangely mine was always darker with second wee of the day! I totally get the anxiety around them though and why you're not saying anything yet. Are you able to get your hands on a boots pink dye? I had so many evaps on easy@homes I didn't fully trust them.. that's not to say yours is, it looks quite clear 🙏

If it makes you feel any better I didn't tell my OH for a few days so totally get it! @Jadeypie I was too scared to build his hopes up, I told my friend instead and we did line analysing for a few days 🙈 really hoping this is the one for you 🙏 x

Jadeypie · 11/08/2024 06:58

@Westy22 I cam see the progression for sure I've not spotted since yesterday but I'm not hopeful obviously use all get that thanks for replying so early coz I'm flapping. I crnt even tell my partner coz if this is like a chemical or whatever he wouldn't try again if we lost another xx

Westy22 · 11/08/2024 06:10

@Jadeypie I'm keeping everything crossed I definitely think there's progression in that line today x ❤️

Jadeypie · 11/08/2024 05:18

Another line this morning but I'm not feeling hopeful spotting hasn't turned into anything yet but I feel like it's going too lesson learnt tho I will never test early again!! Because it's so frustrating xx

@Jadeypie oh my! Cautious congratulations from me too - I deffo see a line there. Keeping everything crossed! 🩷

Paws4thought · 10/08/2024 18:58

@Jadeypie can definitely see line on second test, maybe it was an implantation bleed 🤞 I'm planning to test Tues or Wed which will be 11/12dpo.
@Westy22 you do have a nice tidy bump :)

@Sez281 so the spotting has stopped today just abit this morning. I've come home and done a test no wee holding and I'm sure it's getting darker from this morning. I put it in the premum ap to see if it would pic the line up I know coz am crazy haha and it has as a 0.2 as I said it's very faint but now I'm even more confused suppose al wait see what tomorrow brings but me and spotting do not get on not after last time x

Oh wow @Jadeypie your head must be all over the place! Have you got a pic? If you're 10dpo it's going to be very light. Have you got more to do tomorrow? Crossing everything for you! 🙏 x

Sez281 · 10/08/2024 12:58

@Jadeypie sorry to hear that but if it's just spotting you're still not out yet! 🙏My LP was 10/11 days max so very short, I'm convinced the progesterone I took on 3DPO is what caused it to stick. Hopefully if this isn't your month that the appointments you have coming up will help. It's great that your cycles have gone into the normal range though!

@Westy22 that's a lovely bump pic, you're very neat 🥰 I feel like a heifer so won't be posting any 😂

OP posts:
Jadeypie · 10/08/2024 11:11

@Westy22 I love a good bump pic!! Lovely bump uts crazy when they come out and you think how the hell was you in there hahah xx

@Sez281 thank you 10dp today and started spotting so I'm out I was stupid to do a text last night and I could see a vvvfl on it within the time frame but af will be here tomorrow my lp is way too short I think but least I can go the specialist with that knowledge xx

@]@Paws4thought fingers crossed for you xx

Westy22 · 10/08/2024 10:27

Good luck @Jadeypie @Paws4thought 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Westy22 · 10/08/2024 10:26

I'm going to aim to finish at 37+4 weeks so the 18th October 😱 if everything remains okay @Sez281 @Jadeypie I would prefer as much time as pos the other side when baby is here so hopefully it works out lol so around 10 weeks to go for me 😱

No other scans booked @Supertrooper101 the lady doing it didn't even mention it was on a higher percentile she just added it to notes, but noted overall its on the 49th percentile it's just a bigger belly lol I mentioned to my midwife but she wasn't phased and said it looks fine. Bump measuring Monday tho so we will see how that goes 🤣

What's everyone's bumps like? This was bang on 27 weeks last week 😂 feels like I've gone alot bigger over the last few days x

Sez281 · 10/08/2024 08:46

@Supertrooper101 yeah the head length and belly on the graph all seem to be in "normal" enough range and she doesn't seem worried so I'm not going to think of size too much 🙈😂 Any word on GD test results?

@Westy22 you'll probably be finishing up sooner being in such a physical job? I've technically 7 weeks to go but I don't think I'll last that long with my BP readings still high.. either way I'm gone for a year so just trying to tie up all the loose ends now

@SnookyPook Aw I'd imagine Seb is still quite oblivious to it all really, kids are so resilient (I say this working in the Child Protection Sector not as an active mother yet) I'm sure any time you're physically able will be spent with him but mind yourself too. Enjoy the bonding and the cuddles with both 🥰

@Jadeypie and @Paws4thought hope the tww hasn't dragged in too much for you ladies, keeping everything crossed for you both 🤞 xx

@Paws4thought oh what havnt I got haha. Erm just feel crampy not bad been rationalising as much as I can hahaha. Thirsty too but that could just be because I'm mentally trying to drink more water haha. I think Al give myself till af is late if it's late. cba with the squinting tests haha xx

Paws4thought · 09/08/2024 09:46

@Jadeypie ah that's really good, mine seem to be 27days the last couple of months, what symptoms have you got? I don't feel any different to the last couple of months and I've only got 1 test so trying to decide carefully when to use it 🤣
@SnookyPook thank you x

SnookyPook · 09/08/2024 09:37

Aw best of luck @Jadeypie @Paws4thought !! 💕

Jadeypie · 09/08/2024 07:14

@Paws4thought how are you feeling? Back in the 30s like it ust to be so made up!! I've got 4 days to go and I'm not gona lie symtom spotting has took over 🙈 you would think for how long I've been doing this for I would be more of a pro haha xx

Paws4thought · 08/08/2024 21:18

@SnookyPook glad all is going well with Samuel, hope you heal quickly :)
Everyone else's pregnancy seem to be flying along!!
@Jadeypie I'm 6dpo so not far behind you, fingers crossed for us both this cycle! How long are your cycles now?

Jadeypie · 08/08/2024 17:04

@SnookyPook awww sounds lovely 🥰 suppose overwhelming is to be expected but sounds like your taking it in your stride I love that their names both begin with s aswell ha. So so delighted for you!! Xx

@westy @Sez281 when is your leave dates? The further along the more you crnt wait I remember that feeling like yesterday I took a year off and it was bliss xx

@Supertrooper101 how are you getting on? Xx

@Paws4thought @xxcxdonxx hope use two are OK too xx

I'm 8dpo full on in the tww trenches like a crank and need it to hurry up!! I feel like this month has been the best month in timing wise. Also my cycles have got longer again do bye to those 20 day ones I was having. These meds are definitely helping and maybe the health kick too. Xx

Supertrooper101 · 07/08/2024 16:16

@Sez281 4lb no way lol mine was 3.10 at that point. But if you were 10.2 makes sense lol do you have the graphs done there too for the head belly and femur? Has the belly one been big on yours too? Had the g.d test this morning, ended up snoozing on n off for the 2hrs after the drink. Made me feel really sick tho. Am ok, blood pressure is really low. Do keep telling them am feeling dizzy n weak but there like meh, its fine...oookkkkk lol
@Westy22 i would have fort with it measuring on the 80th that they would have done another scan tbh. Mines on the 95th lol@SnookyPook i was the same with my girl, felt guilty for leaving her out sometimes but she still had a great bond with her little bro so i wouldnt worry too much

SnookyPook · 07/08/2024 12:32

@Jadeypie hope the tww doesn't drag on too much for you!!

@Sez281 glad work is easing up for you. I completely checked out mentally quite early on in third trimester! Glad I brought my leave forwards! With annual leave too I finished around 34wks and I was very ready by then! When do you officially finish? And you @Westy22 ? Agree with Sez, don't know how people keep going in retail and more physically demanding/public facing jobs!

SnookyPook · 07/08/2024 12:28

Thanks guys - I'm doing well. @Jadeypie the transition from one to two has mostly been good - bit overwhelming at moments - you definitely don't get all the same opportunities to sleep when baby sleeps etc. I did get quite a lot of time to bond with Samuel his first week though from being kept in hospital (he had jaundice and phototherapy) and although I felt bad being away from Sebby I tried to make the most of that one on one time. It's lovely seeing them together. I feel a bit bad occasionally that I can't give Sebby as much focused attention. Part of that is just not being 100% physically with still recovering from the birth so I'm sure that will improve soon. Although Samuel is currently much more of a blank slate I'm just loving getting to know him and thinking of all the stages ahead of us and also seeing his bond with Sebby develop. It feels like such a special time and even more so after the losses last year - I feel so lucky to be in this situation. 🥰
